I just placed an order for the CV 35/1.4 Nokton Classic. Being the black and white filmie geek fanboy that I am, I obviously opted for the single-coated (SC) version. Yes, I already own the CV 35/1.7 Ultron. Yes, part of my decision to buy this lens was driven by pure G.A.S. (Gear Acquisition Syndrome). Beyond that though, there were actual good reasons behind my action. There were also good reasons *not* to “trade-in” my Ultron for the Nokton Classic. What follows is the “internal discussion” that went on in my head and why I ended up selling off my Ultron to help finance a new Nokton Classic.
